Analyzing Files in Servers and NAS Storage Devices

DiskBoss allows one to analyze disk space, classify files, detect duplicate files and search files in all network shares
of one or more servers or NAS storage devices. In order to analyze one or more servers, open an analysis operation dialog,
press the 'Add' button located on the right side of the list of analysis locations, select the 'Servers or NAS Devices' mode
and enter one or more host names or IP addresses separated by the semicolon (;) character.

DiskBoss will scan the network and show a list of network shares detected in the specified servers and NAS storage devices
allowing one to select one or more network shares that should be processed. In order to be able to use this feature,
the user needs to have permissions to access network shares.

The network shares scanning operation may be performed multiple times for different servers and NAS storage devices and
an unlimited number of network shares from different servers may be added to the analysis operation. During runtime,
DiskBoss will process all the specified network shares in parallel using all CPUs and/or CPU-cores available in the
host computer DiskBoss is running on.

Analyzing Files in All Servers on the Network

Another option is to analyze, classify and or search files in all servers and/or NAS storage devices available on the network.
In order to analyze all servers on the network, open an analysis operation dialog, press the 'Add' button located on the

DiskBoss will scan the network and show a list of servers and NAS storage devices detected on the network.
Select one or more servers or NAS storage devices to analyze in and press the 'Ok' button.

DiskBoss will scan the selected servers and show a list of network shares detected in the servers and NAS storage devices
allowing one to select one or more network shares that should be processed. During runtime, DiskBoss will process the selected
network shares in parallel using all CPUs available in the host computer DiskBoss is running on. In order to be able to
use this feature, the user needs to have permissions to access network shares.
